Flight Score
Departure
Lower the nose and add power to raise climb speed to 176 kt.
What happened: Climb speed was 158 kt against a target of 176 kt, running 18 kt slow through the climb.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator against the climb target of 176 kt.
Arrival
Reduce power sooner on the approach so your speed is back to 127 kt well before the stabilisation gate.
What happened: This flight was fast at the stabilisation gate, then crossed the threshold high on a shallow descent and 7 kt above VREF; carrying that extra speed through to the threshold usually carries the touchdown long, and this flight touched down 285 m past the target point.
Watch for: Airspeed indicator: 127 kt at the threshold.
Preparing for a stable approach will give you time to decide on whether to attempt the landing or going around. Too much altitude with a high sink rate will result in carrying too much speed onto the runway. Configuring flaps and the gear late also won't help the speed decay.

The threshold, the flare and the hold-off. The approach that led to it is the stabilisation gates below.
Two stabilised approach gates, each with seven checks, where the approach path is 1,000 ft and 500 ft above the runway. They are the approach's score: the checks passed out of the checks that ran.
At the 1,000 ft gate: speed 57 kt FAST on the reference speed of 127 kt.
At the 500 ft gate: speed 17 kt FAST on the reference speed of 127 kt.
The approach, gate by gate
Side view — the last 2,069 m of the approach.
Plan view — the first 2,069 m of the 3,906 m runway, to the same scale as the side view.
Touched down 742 m past the threshold — beyond the full-score zone. The arrival was smooth.
The rest of the report
Taxiing from the parking area to the runway at LEBL Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport took 14 minutes and covered a distance of 8 nautical miles. The Boeing 737-700 then began its departure roll on runway 24R, accelerating to a liftoff speed of 139 knots. The takeoff distance of 1,576 meters accounted for 54% of the available runway length. Local weather conditions at the time of departure featured a temperature of 22°C and a gentle wind of 2 knots from a direction of 120°.
As the aircraft climbed away from Barcelona, it began its enroute climb, ascending from an initial altitude of 946 feet above sea level to a cruising altitude of 29,990 feet. This climb phase covered a distance of 74 nautical miles and took 12 minutes to complete. The aircraft then entered a level cruise, maintaining a steady altitude for 38 minutes as it covered a distance of 305 nautical miles. The enroute descent phase began 1 mile south east of Costigliole d'Asti, Italy, and saw the aircraft descend from 29,984 feet to 2,032 feet in just 10 minutes, covering a distance of 56 nautical miles.
The final approach to runway 35R at LIMC Milan Malpensa International Airport was conducted from the south, with the aircraft aligning with the runway at 4 nautical miles and 1,289 feet above ground level. The landing was executed with a touchdown speed of 134 knots, which was slightly above the target value. The touchdown point was 334 meters beyond the touchdown zone, and the runway touchdown alignment was very good. The total landing distance of 1,996 meters accounted for 67% of the available runway length. Following a smooth rollout, the aircraft taxied to the parking area, completing the flight in a total distance of 452 nautical miles and using 3,565 kilograms of fuel.
The Boeing 737-700 touched down on runway 35R at LIMC Milan Malpensa International Airport with a score of 89.8%. The aircraft was approaching from the south, heading 349.0° at 4 nautical miles and 1,289 feet above ground level. The approach quality was satisfactory, with a threshold height of 71 feet above ground level, well above the target, and a threshold speed of 135 knots, also above the target.
The touchdown characteristics were acceptable, with a touchdown point 334 meters beyond the touchdown zone. The touchdown speed of 134 knots was a little fast, but the touchdown rate of -196 feet per minute was good. The runway touchdown alignment was very good, indicating a high degree of control and precision during the landing. The local weather conditions were favorable, with a temperature of 20°C and a light wind of 3 knots at 223°, resulting in a negligible crosswind and tailwind component.
The total landing distance of 1,996 meters was 67% of the runway length, indicating a relatively short landing distance. The runway rollout alignment was also very good, demonstrating a high level of control and precision during the rollout phase. Overall, the landing was satisfactory, with some minor deviations from the target values, but no significant issues or concerns.
